Manchester United lead the race for Mitchell | OneFootball

Manchester United are leading the chase for Crystal Palace left-back Tyrick Mitchell ahead of January, as contract talks at Selhurst Park stall, according to Goal.com.

Palace risk losing the academy graduate on a free if no agreement is reached and could consider offers in the winter window. United want greater stability on the left of their defence and view Mitchell as a strong fit.

They face competition within the Premier League. Liverpool are interested, seeing his top-flight experience as valuable depth on the left flank.

Chelsea are monitoring the situation, regarding a potential deal as a cost-effective way to strengthen their squad.

Interest also comes from Italy, with Juventus enquiring about his availability as they assess versatile defensive options for the second half of the season.

Mitchell has made 250 appearances for Palace, scoring eight goals and supplying 18 assists. He won the FA Cup in 2025, then the Conference League and English Super Cup in 2025/26. This season he has played five Premier League matches and scored two goals.
